Formations from Icelandic Volcanic Ash

Published by Kerber.Edited by Thelma Herzl. Text by Anton Herzl.

For this project, the Austria-based artist Thelma Herzl photographed unique ash formations at the edge of the Eyjafjallajökull volcano in Iceland. Highlighting the infinite variety of their patternings, Herzl uses the ashes to create black-and-white photographic abstractions that resemble anything from fractals to ocean beds.
